Objective To investigate the antibacterial activity of combined antimicrobial agents for imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in vitro,so as to provide evidence for guiding clinical practice.Methods Twenty-seven isolates of irnipenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii were collected from March,2007 to February.2008.The minimal inhibitory concentrations(MIC)of the isolates against eleven frequently used antibiotics were determined by E test and agar dilution.Combined drug sensitivity testing was performed by broth checkerboard titration assay.Synergism between minocycline and cefoperazone-sulbaetam was analyzed by time-killing curve.Results The results from checkerboard titration assay and time-kill studies showed that the synergy rates between minocycline and cefperazone-sulbactam,minocycline and amikacin,minocycline and ciprofloxacin were 74.1%,28.0%and 48.1%,respectively.The synergy rates between amikacin and cefoperazone-sulbactam,anaikacin and ciprofloxaein were 23.1%and 37.0%,respectively.The synergy rate between cefoperazone-sulbactam and ciprofloxacin was 7.1%.With combination therapy.both MICs of cefoperazone-sulbactam and MIC of minocyeline decreased to lower than breakpoints.According to time-killing curve,the synergy rate between cefoperazone-sulbactam and minocycline was 100%.Conclusion Minocycline and cefoperazone-sulbaetam can be used for treating infections caused by multidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.

With the global development of medical information standard, construction work of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) information standard system has been promoted rapidly. The framework of ancient Chinese medical literature clinical terminology classification standardization is one of the foundations of TCM language system. Its research will further promote and perfect TCM information standard system. We have adhered to the connection among ancient TCM classification framework, modern TCM and western medicine classification framework. Exploration on framework construction of ancient Chinese medical literature clinical terminology classification standardization was based on previous work of Chinese medicine clinical terminology classification and code standard, reference frame structure of SNOMED CT, research findings of classification standard framework of Chinese medicine clinical terms, andQian Jin Fang.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the effects of Ling Qi Juan Gan capsule drug-containing serum at different concentrations on the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-induced proliferative capabilities of and JAK2 and p-STAT3 protein expression in hepatic stellate cells (HSC) using an in vitro system.
METHODSTwenty-five Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five equal groups for intragastric administration of physiological saline (10 ml/kg; group A), Fufang Biejia Ruangan tablet solution (1.5 g/kg; group B), or Ling Qi Juan Gan capsule solution at low dose (2.125 g/kg; group C1), mid dose (4.25 g/kg; group C2), or high dose (8.5 g/kg; group C3). The post-administration serum isolated from each rat (200 ml/L) was used to treat the HSC-T6 cell line following induction by PDGF (10 ng/ml). At 24, 48 and 72 h post-exposure, the cells' proliferation was measured using the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) colorimetric assay. In addition, at 24 h post-exposure the expression of JAK2 and p-STAT3 was measured by western blotting (expressed as grey scale intensity). Multiple group comparison of repeated measures data was made by one-way ANOVA with Student-Newman-Keuls post hoc test.
RESULTSCompared to group A, groups C2 and C3 had significantly higher inhibited proliferation at all post-exposure time points examined (24 h: A = 1.550 +/- 0.065, C2 = 1.335 +/- 0.106, C3 = 1.241 +/- 0.205; 48 h: A = 1.311 +/- 0.650, C2 = 1.090 +/- 0.106, C3 = 0.909 +/- 0.191; 72 h: A = 1.039 +/- 0.103, C2 = 0.719 +/- 0.116, C3 = 0.641 +/- 0.110, F = 36.292, all P less than 0.05); in contrast, compared to group A, group C1 showed no inhibition of proliferation at 24 h (1.522 +/- 0.128, P = 0.717) but showed significantly higher inhibition of proliferation at 48 h and 72 h (1.153 +/- 0.183 and 0.753 +/- 0.210, respectively, F = 36.292, P less than 0.05). Compared with group A, all Ling Qi Juan Gan capsule-containing serum-treated groups showed significantly lower expression of both JAK2 (A = 1.605 +/- 0.024 vs. C1 = 1.170 +/- 0.042, C2 = 0.842 +/- 0.036, C3 = 0.555 +/- 0.036, F = 43.091) and p-STAT3 (A = 1.401 +/- 0.030 vs. C1 = 1.229 +/- 0.025, C2 = 0.668 +/- 0.034, C3 = 0.630 +/- 0.026, F = 78.426, all P less than 0.01).
CONCLUSIONLing Qi Juan Gan capsule drug-containing serum can inhibit the proliferation of HSC-T6 cells in a dose-dependent manner and cause an overall decrease in the expression of JAK2 and p-STAT3 in activated HSC, thereby leading to a suppression of the JAK/STAT signal transduction pathway.

OBJECTIVETo observe the incidence, causes and deviation angle of axial offset in patients with fracture ununited treated by Ilizarov bone transport technology.
METHODSFrom January 2007 to December 2012, 10 patients with fracture ununited were treated by Ilizarov bone transport including 8 males and 2 females with an average age of (30.3 ± 10.6) years old ranging from 18 to 49 years old. The segment of bone defect involved upper tibial in 2 cases, medial tibia in 2 cases, lower tibial in 5 cases, upper femoral in 1 case. For Paley type of bone defect, 6 cases were type B1, 4 cases were B3. The incidence and deviation angle of axial offset after Ilizarov bone transport technology were observed and evaluated on bone result by Paley assessment.
RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 19 to 32 months with an average of (22.0 ± 5.6) months. Three cases were natural healed at fracture ends, the other 7 cases were healed after bone graft. The time of external fixator was 16 to 28 months. At the last follow-up, there were 3 cases occurred coronal angulation of angle 5° to 11° with an average of (8.7 ± 3.2). Sagittal angulation was in 4 cases, angle 6° to 9° with an average of (8.5 ± 2.1)°. There were 4 cases occurred axial offset. In the last follow-up, according to Paley evaluation criteria, osseous results were excellent in 7 cases, good in 3 cases; functional results were excellent in 6 cases, good in 4 cases.
CONCLUSIONAxial deviation after the Ilizarov bone transport treatment is relatively common, which will result in delayed healing of bone and poor limb alignment. In order to improve the bone healing, corresponding measurements should be taken to avoid or reduce the incidence of axial deviation during and after the operation.

Objective:
To study the current situation of sleep quality of senior high school students and analyze the influencing factors, so as to provide a reference for targeted sleep quality improvement of high school students.
Methods:
A total of 4 793 senior high school students of different grades were recruited from four different regions (Shanghai, Qinghai, Macao, Henan) in 2020. The information of demographic, sleep status, mental factors, living habits and other information were collected by questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and Logistic regression were used to analyze sleep quality and its influencing factors of the senior high school students.
Results:
About 24.2% of senior high school students reported sleep problems and 71.4% slept less than 7 hours at night. Interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety symptoms, learning, family and interpersonal stress had significant effects on sleep problems in senior high school students( χ 2=1 147.98, 1 228.35, 1 032.54, 371.05, 497.61, 475.39, P <0.01). Drinking coffee and tea, drinking alcohol, smoking (including secondhand smoke), long term use of electronic products, late sleep, bedtime diet, poor sleep environment, parents with sleep problems were the risk factors for sleep disorders of senior high school students, regular exercise was the protective factors for sleep disorders of senior high school students, the influence was significant ( χ 2=160.28, 127.73 , 108.02, 113.27, 470.91, 340.95, 72.02, 155.53, 116.30, 76.96, 28.75, 12.89, P <0.05).
Conclusion
The sleep quality of senior high school students needs to be improved. Schools and parents should pay attention to the mental health and living habits of senior high school students to help them improve their sleep quality and grow up smoothly.
